The Calming Garden is a book that explores the power of gardens and landscapes to inspire and nurture diverse, meaningful relationships.

The garden is a transformative and awe-inspiring way of viewing the world. As magnificent spaces, gardens infuse us with hope and wonder. As gathering places, they foster friendships and communities. Thoughtfully designed, they prompt us to pause and appreciate our surroundings. Abundant with edible plants, they nourish us. Rich in diversity, both human and non-human, they connect us with the vibrant world we inhabit. They make us feel at home in our bodies, in our cities, and on our planet.
Through captivating stories and essays, The Calming Garden invites readers on a journey to explore gardens as spaces where we establish mutually beneficial relationships with the living world surrounding us. Each chapter in the book delves into a specific concept or element of the garden, ranging from the places where gardens thrive (such as a driveway in San Francisco or a bathtub used as a planter) to garden management (discussing why some lawns require daily watering while others can go nearly a year without irrigation), to color and texture (exploring how fine-textured plants like grasses can be employed to harmonize a space), and everything in between.
Ideal for home gardeners, landscape designers, or as a thoughtful gift for the gardener in your life, The Calming Garden serves as a tribute to the wonders, designs, and habitats that flourish within a garden, inspiring us to nurture diverse and meaningful connections with the gardens and landscapes that surround us.
